Now, now, don't be nasty. I guess I'm trying to get the point across that not all of us have the choice or opportunity to go to the big sporting goods stores around the corner and buy the marvelous friggin' flats that we all hear about.
If I want to go to Walmart or Canadian Tire and buy ammo, then I will. As I said before, I don't recall seeing "flats" of shotgun ammo anywhere in the last 45 years. I guess that makes me kind of a second class shooter. I use this ammo for shooting gophers and the odd session shooting at clay pidgeons out in a field somewhere, someplace I don't have to worry about any high class shooters looking down their nose at me. Heaven forbid that I blast off some good old Co-op ammo......
